I cannot find for the life of me the thread tools menu or any way to search a thread specifically (to the exclusion of everything else), so I will apologize in advance in case this question has already been asked or the matter discussed.
Without further ado: I've seen some lapping film sets on AliExpress which appear to be of a fitting size (22x28 cm) and include the appropriate grits for Method honing (12, 9, 3, 1 microns, and a few more that are probably useless). They're quite affordable and won't go through customs (for the time being at least).
Are these of sufficient quality?

- I'm EU, so US-based retailers tend to be expensive/not practical
- UK's mostly verboten because of Brexit fall-out
- Digikey turns out to be expensive.
- The selection on Amazon is dire, offline is worse.
- The thread has almost 150 pages (whoa)
